GOP House Majority Plans Definitely Don’t Include Helping You.

Let’s talk about what they’ll be up to, shall we?

The GOP isn’t even in control of the House of Representatives yet, and I’m already tired.

In the interest of unnecessary fairness, we should at least admit that Republican lawmakers have been clear about their intentions from the beginning. They’ve been broadcasting their intentions to investigate everything ranging from Hunter Biden to the supposed unfair treatment that the January 6th rioters have experienced. Oh, and we can’t forget investigations into Nancy Pelosi as well.

Always nice to have something to look forward to, isn’t it?

Good to know how our taxpayer money is going to be spent over the next couple of years, right? Those Republicans. Always interested in responsible government spending.

But, in the midst of all the tweets and media appearances from GOP leadership and prominent figures within the Party, I’m sure they would like all of us to overlook the fact that there are some significant things missing from their plans.

For instance, oh you know, actually doing something to improve the material conditions of the American people.

Have Republicans ever laid out an actual plan for how they’re going to improve the lives of their constituents? What answers have they provided for you? Have they ever told you what they’re going to do to raise your wages, get you better healthcare, or ensure you get those Social Security checks? Are they interested in investing in your child’s education? Do they have any answers for helping the American people make sure they’re able to pay the rent, and put food on the table, and find daycare for their families?

They do not care about you.

Republicans are not interested in raising your wages, or making sure you don’t go bankrupt due to a medical emergency. They’re not interested in changing the fact that we’re being price gouged at the gas pump. They aren’t interested in saving Social Security, or making sure your children and grandchildren will live in a habitable planet.

All they have to offer is distractions as usual, and nothing more. They’re here to serve their donors, and they don’t even pretend to hide it.

Why draw our attention to record profits for corporations when they can point to Hunter Biden’s laptop instead? They would rather use your taxpayer money to draw your attention away from the issues that matter, than actually do anything to help you.

As for the Democrats, they have a responsibility to remind the American people of that fact every step of the way for the next two years. But, that’s only if they actually want to win.
